General notes: 1. When recommending spa therapy for patients with diseases of the cardiovascular system, one should take into account their reaction to the change of weather, and refrain from sending patients with meteotropic reactions in periods of sharp fluctuations in weather, especially during the cold period, as well as to resorts with contrasting climatic and geographical conditions. The patients with long-term stable diseases should be directed to the spa treatment. 2. In times of recommending the sanatorium and health resort treatment for the patients with cardiovascular disease, one should take into account the presence of cardiac arrhythmias and conduction, the nature of the disease. It is allowed to direct to the sanatorium and health resort treatment the patients with endocarditis, valvular disease, coronary heart disease, hypertension with occasional beats (up to 5 in 1 min.), Sinus arrhythmia, atrioventricular block of 1 degree and complete blockade of the right and left legs of bundle branch block. Contraindications1. Rheumatoid endiomiocarditis in the active phase (II, III degree of activity). 2. Myocarditis of Abramov-Fiedler type and close to it by severity. 3. Atherosclerosis of the lower limbs, with the presence of ulcers and gangrene. 4. Thromboangiitis obliterans (endarteritis) with a tendency to generalization in the presence of fresh ulcerations and gangrene. 5. Thromboembolic disease. 6. Thrombophlebitis within 1-2 years after the elimination of the septic process.
